These are known problems; we are working on a new way of printing characters
on screen and that can mean the developers version is unusable.

I suggest you use the latest release (koffice 1.1.1) for _any_ serious work
in KWord.

Unless you wish to hack on KWord naturally ;) Then you can pick a bug or
something else; just forget the problems with text positioning at the moment.

The only thing worse than failure is the fear of trying something new
